Thanks to both of u for the replies. The factor of the wind was what had me wanting to shoot at 100. It definitely makes sense that the farther u get the more groups are defined.
Engineer101 what do u mean that you don't consider bullet stabilization a factor? I have just heard word through the grape vine that sometimes a bullet takes farther than 100 yards to stabilize. That could be complete myth, but that is why I am asking?
Thanks to all for the helpful information!
VarmintH8R that is exactly what I'm talking about!
I think with all the information that I have heard I think I will move my initial load testing out to 200, simply because I have the range capabilities and it can't hurt. Another question about a bullet laying down, is it more pronounced with larger diameter bullets, or smaller diameter bullets or is it about the same across the board?? Or is it affected by a bullets length?
Thanks again for the replies

I'm just curious If there is a huge benifit to testing loads at 200 yards vs 100. If so could anybody explain! Do some bullets take that long to stablize or am I completely wrong? Thanks for any info.
